Chapter 265 Drinking Contest
When Wen Lan heard Jiang Jingci ask how much his heart was worth to her, she was suddenly speechless.
Jiang Jingci stared at her, with no intention of avoiding this topic.
Wen Lan frowned in pain, "I'm sorry, Lao Jiang, I can't give you what you want."
"It's not that I can't give it, it's that I never want to give it." Jiang Jingci's narrow eyes were full of unwillingness and paranoia, "Ever since I met you, I've been possessed by a demon. I know you don't need me, so I will never Look at me one more time, but I am still quietly paying attention to your news——"
"Stop talking!" Wen Lan didn't expect Jiang Jingci, who was as calm as Jiang Jingci, to say such a thing and interrupted him angrily.
Jiang Jingci quickly calmed down and said, "I'm sorry, I said something I shouldn't have said again."
"It's me who should be sorry." Wen Lan lowered his eyes, with a deep sense of guilt in his voice, "Since we met, I have been the one who has been causing trouble for you, and you have helped me and saved me time and time again. Make an exception for me - I tried to accept you when I was pregnant, but within a day I realized that I was just deceiving myself, Lao Jiang, I really can't do it!"
"I like you and treat you well because I hope you can live a happy life. If I only make you feel pain, then I will be guilty of a serious crime. You can calm down and I will go to Meiyuan to chat with Lao Qiu for a while. "
Jiang Jingci didn't dare to force her anymore, so he opened the door and went downstairs.
Wen Lan fell down on a dining chair and covered his face with his hands.
The phone rang, and when she saw the name "Xie Yansheng" flashing on it, she didn't answer it.
Soon, Xie Yansheng sent a message: Open the door, I'm at your door!
She ignored it.
Xie Yansheng's message popped up again: Where have you gone? Who are you with now?
She could feel the sour smell of Chen Tan's old jealousy through the screen!
They are all divorced, and Xie Yansheng also has a legitimate Mrs. Xie, and it's really boring to cling to her ex-wife like a dog-skin plaster!
She neither replied nor blocked the thank you banquet.
Jiang Jingci and Qiu Ping walked in chatting and laughing. As soon as they sat down, the waiter came to serve the food.
Although Qiu Ping repeatedly stated that as long as there is good wine, just make a few dishes to go with the wine, Jiang Jingci still put effort into the food.
Four exquisite and eye-catching cold dishes, eight fragrant hot dishes, plus a cordyceps black chicken soup.
Qiu Ping shook his head repeatedly and scolded Jiang Jingci, "I said as long as there is good wine, it will be fine. You have set such a high standard for me. If Miss Wen loses in the second trial, I will really feel sorry for the food on the table!"
"I'm afraid that you are hiding your selfish motives and are unwilling to use all your strength for Wen Lan's lawsuit. Let's settle your stomach with good food and wine first." Jiang Jingci smiled and opened a bottle of white wine.
"Lao Jiang, you haven't drank liquor for almost ten years, are you really planning for me to make an exception today?" Qiu Ping glanced at Wen Lan and laughed meaningfully, "Am I overthinking that you are drinking liquor today?" Not for me at all?"
"To be honest, it's really not for you." Jiang Jingci laughed dryly.
Wen Lan's scalp went numb when he heard it. He stood up and grabbed the bottle of liquor that had just been opened from Jiang Jingci's hand, "I'll do it."
She first poured a glass for Qiu Ping, and after filling it for Jiang Jingci, she looked at him worriedly.
Jiang Jingci happened to raise his eyes, and their eyes met.
"Lao Jiang, you haven't drank liquor for so many years. Take it easy. If your stomach can't stand it, don't force yourself." She said with concern.
Jiang Jingci didn't respond, and Qiu Ping laughed, "Miss Wen already feels sorry for Lao Jiang even before we start drinking! It's okay not to let Lao Jiang drink liquor, but it's the same thing if Miss Wen comes to drink for Lao Jiang!"
"Sorry, I-" Wen Lan quietly placed a hand on his lower abdomen.
"Miss Wen is afraid that I will be responsible for something wrong with my drinking, so she won't feel sorry for me!" Jiang Jingci looked lonely and took the initiative to pick up the glass of wine and laughed at himself, "Today in front of Lao Qiu, I will issue a disclaimer first and drink out. The problem is, all the responsibility lies with me, Jiang Jingci, and has nothing to do with Miss Wen."
Wen Lan's face turned red and white for a while. This was the first time Jiang Jingci had embarrassed her in front of outsiders.
In the past, she would have gotten up and walked away.
But now that the second trial is about to begin, in order to make a comeback in the second trial, she can only borrow Jiang Jingci's connections!
There were two voices screaming in her head!
One said don't care about the result of the second trial, leave quickly, don't be angry with this coward!
The other one said, just be patient. If you really lose the second trial, you will continue to be manipulated by the Xie family in the future!
While she was deep in thought, Jiang Jingci and Qiu Ping had already started drinking together.
After two glasses of white wine, Jiang Jingci's face turned red.
As a northerner, Qiu Ping had a passion for liquor in his bones. The spicy alcohol entered his organs, making him feel comfortable all over. He also talked more, ranging from current affairs to investments, and from investments to Jiang Jingci's personal problems.
"Lao Jiang, as your brother, every time I see you I have to advise you that it's time to find a safe woman and start a family. Today, I don't care whether you like to hear it or not, but I still want to nag you again. !”
"Don't talk about it!" Jiang Jingci, who was already a little tipsy, picked up his chopsticks and said, "Hurry up and eat some food, and see if I can plug that broken mouth of yours!"
Qiu Ping picked up the chopsticks with a smile and said while picking up the vegetables, "Stop talking, stop talking, I'll shut up right now!"
During this dinner, Jiang Jingci and Qiu Ping were almost all chatting, while Wen Lan remained quietly listening.
At the end of the day, two bottles of liquor were consumed. Even though Qiu Ping drank a lot, he staggered when he walked out of the private room.
Not to mention Jiang Jingci.
Both of them were helped to the parking lot by the waiter.
On the way back to the city, Wen Lan realized that she had been so busy since landing that she hadn't even booked a hotel.
She knew that Jiang Jingci had a property here, so she thought about sending Jiang Jingci away first and then finding a hotel nearby to stay.
Jiang Jingci and Qiu Ping kept talking after getting in the car.
The two talked about their friendship many years ago until now, and Qiu Ping once again brought the topic to Jiang Jingci's personal problems.
"Old Jiang, with your status and position, is it interesting to be so humble for a divorced woman? Don't wait any longer, she doesn't have you in her heart! In a few days - no, tomorrow, I will introduce you to a woman who is a hundred times better than her! Wait for my call, whoever doesn't introduce you to someone else is a grandson!"
"Are you my brother, Old Qiu? If you are, take back what you just said!" Jiang Jingci angrily said, "I like mine, it has nothing to do with you!"
"I always think you are sober in the world, you are old and still rushing to be a licking dog! I despise you, Jiang Jingci!"
"If you don't shut up, we can't even be friends!"
The two kept arguing.
Wen Lan, who was sitting in the front, bit her lips hard and clenched her hands helplessly.
The driver first sent Qiu Ping home, and then drove to a high-end community called "Emerald Huafu" in the city center.
